Calphalon Katana Stainless-Steel 6-Inch Chef's Knife customer reviews: Cuts like a knife Cuts like the best knife I've ever used. Looks cool - though my wife says the Damascus-ripples make it look dirty. Feels comfortable in my hand. If I was in a horror-slasher movie and needed a knife to defend myself from the creepy-crawlies, I'd want this knife to be the one my scrabbling fingers find as I desparately grope across the kitchen counters. note: Packaging is cheesy, and you don't want to just throw this in a drawer, so you need a block or magnet rack or something to store it. Everything I Expected I have owned countless knifes that claimed to be "good". Needless to say, almost every knife I have owned has been a disgrace until now. The Calphalon 6" Chef (knife) is a superb all purpose knife with several notable features. First off, the Japanese steel construction is not only very attractive, but also extremely durable. The knife is relatively light and is embedded with a very comfortable, yet ergonomic handle. Note, the knife feels well balanced and non-strenuous in your hands, even under various vigorous chopping, cutting tasks. I used the knife to cut several vegetables, raw meat, along with raw fish; so far the knife cuts through meat as if it was butter. I had exceptional control while gouging through my various products. You must be sure to wash and dry the knife immediately after use (only hand washing is permitted). Furthermore, this knife is relatively inexpensive; considering the other brands such as shun, this knife is a bargain. Lastly, this product is backed by Calphalon's lifetime warranty. All in all an excellent product, and I would highly recommend it. The knife has exceptional sharpness, craftsmanship, and style, definitely worth the money. No Response After having these knifes for about a year they stared to chip and crack on the blade edges. They were very-well cared and always hand washed. We have send several emails to Calphalon and tried calling them and recieved no response from Calphalon it appears they just could care less. I would strongly recommend staying away from any of their products!!!!!! Beware of Rust/Oxidation I loved this knife for two weeks. I took excellent care that it remained dry, and in a block. However, after just a few weeks, I noticed oxidation spots and a split on the edge of the knife. I didn't have any warranty information with this gift, but according to another person's review, the same thing happened to them and they've been trying to contact Calphalon, and "they don't seem to care". So I don't recommend spending money on something you'll use for two weeks before it starts going south. My First Katana I found this knife in a local store and used a coupon to reduce the price to give the knife a try. It is the sharpest knife I have ever bought or used, and I have used a good number over the years including various German and other excellent brands. The balance and appearance are outstanding. The layered steel is attractive and interesting, but I don't know how much it contributes to the actual cutting, but it looks great. The tapered bolster reminds the user to grip the knife properly (if you are of the "pinch" grip persuasion). It is very easy to use with all kinds of food and cutting chores. It has held its edge with pretty frequent use for well over a year. I like to keep my knives sharp, and so far, this has not needed sharpening. I have bought other Katana knives piecemeal since purchasing this one and have really had good luck and experiences with all except the 5.5" serrated knife: it seemed to shred rather than slice/saw, so I returned it. I have five other Katana knives and plan to build my set piece by piece. I have had absolutely no rusting or cleaning problems, although I do try to clean all my knives as soon as possible after use. Highly recommended for sharpness, balance, use, design, and appearance.
